We are excited to hear that Springfield’s own pop punk group Hospital Job will be heading overseas for the second time to Europe this spring! The band has a good number of dates planned in May in Europe. Check those out on the tour poster above or also below:

Get ready for the next 217 hip hop event to take place in Southtown – it’s a “Get Connected” networking event being put on by Kick-It Coalition taking place next weekend, the afternoon of next Saturday, March 25th. There will also be a killer punk show happening at Black Sheep that night which we will tell you more about tomorrow. The hip hop event will be going from 2:00 to 6:00 pm inside Black Sheep. From the event description:

Check out some music from Dottie Staxx – one of the artists performing next Saturday below. Check out a facebook event for all of this right here. Also check out our shows page for a look at everything coming up at Black Sheep and Southtown this spring.

It’s time to get that dusty old karaoke machine up and running (for the first time) at Dumb Records tonight because we are trying new things and hosting a karaoke night, oh boy! We are kicking things off tonight in the record store with two touring bands, and then getting into the karaoke. Those bands are Bleeding Gums and Cohete from Chicago- both bringing the rock n’ roll and punk. Check out Cohete’s brand new tour tape on the player embedded below. Then after that we are going to dive into the karaoke which will be on a projector screen in the store. Anything goes, and anyone is welcome to participate.

Tonight inside Dumb Records starts at 7:30 pm. We are asking for $3 for the touring acts. Check out a facebook event for the show right here. Also be sure to check out our shows page for a look at everything coming up in Southtown this spring.
